With spring looming in the distance and the ground starting to thaw in some parts of the United States, heavy construction equipment is making an appearance on many construction sites. We’re seeing everything from John Deere backhoes to excavators being used on small and large projects.
We searched high and low to find some of the best images of construction equipment in action captured by our fans on Twitter. We wanted to recognize the photographers who took time out of their day to snap a photo and put it on their social profiles and also thank the hardworking men and women in the construction industry who keep working even in harsh winter weather.
Take a look at our Twitter fan media gallery. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

We really appreciate every photo and video that was captured. It’s always exciting to see construction equipment doing what it was built to do. As it’s likely we missed some great photos and videos, please send any additional media assets our way on Twitter: @MachineFinder.
